Addressing issues of• IPY data definition• Data policy• Relations to observational
systems
MAP 2006.04.05 5
Overarching Purpose
• Our primary purpose should be to serve the objectives of IPY, esp:• International exchange (>60 countries)• Interdisciplinary science (>50,000
participants representing physical, life, and social scientists)
• Building a legacy
MAP 2006.04.05 6
What are IPY Data?
Working with Observations Committee to address preservation and access to ongoing operational data
MAP 2006.04.05 7
An IPY Data Management Workshop
• Over 40 participants from 13 countries
• Major goal: determine functions, form, and implementation for an IPY Data and Information Service
• Results at

Vision: a cultural shift in science
“Preserve or Perish”
You are not finished until you have done the research, published the results, and published the data, receiving formal credit for everything.

Data Discovery & Access
• Revised data policy on free and open access coming soon
• Working with the ICSU CODATA Global Information Commons for Science Initiative
MAP 2006.04.05 16
Interoperability
“What few things must be the same so everything else can be different.”
• A few good standards: • ISO19115 metadata• Open Geospatial Consortium
• Explore advanced semantic approaches

A Phased Approach
Think BIG but start small
IPY provides a unique opportunity to revolutionize data management, but…
IPY is only 329 days away
MAP 2006.04.05 19
Funding
• Letter from the JC to national committees requesting that solicitations explicitly include funds for data management as part of each project
• Developing a prospectus to shop around to funding agencies, foundations, and corporations.
MAP 2006.04.05 20
Draft Timeline of a Phased Approach
Before IPY• Seek funding • Web site• Promote the plan—ask about at CODATA06!• Survey projects and collect basic catalog metadata• ID data managers, archives, and gaps• Educate and assist community • ID or create essential reference data. • Develop data release plans to support field
programs• Plan the overall organizational data flow.
MAP 2006.04.05 21
Draft TimelineMarch 2007- March 2008—first field phase• Track and catalog data in progress • Develop and link portals through a union catalog of
data • Collect metrics on archiving and use data• Link (improve interoperability of) key data systems• Develop derived data/information resources for
education and public outreach
March 2008- March 2009—second field phase• Promote interdisciplinary data exchange
through standard-based services• Implement prototype data integration
systems.
MAP 2006.04.05 22
Draft Timeline
After IPY• Implement comprehensive,
interdisciplinary Polar Data and Information System
• Ongoing long-term stewardship, including negotiating long-term-support commitments and assessing the risk of data loss.
MAP 2006.04.05 23
Outstanding issues
• Ensuring coordination of elements• Linkages to operational community• Ensuring data quality• Funding!
